When cleaning is complete, dry your hands and then reconnect
the plug to your mains supply.
Defrosting the
freezer compartment
Your appliance is frost free, so you will not need to manually defrost
the freezer section.
However if for example the door is left open for a prolonged period of
time or the door gasket is not sealing correctly, then you could get ice
building in the freezer section. If this occurs, then you should follow
the steps below.
o
The day before you defrost, the thermostat dial should be turned
to position <7>; this will make sure that the food contained in
the compartment is frozen properly.
o
Whilst defrosting the appliance, the food should be removed
from the compartment and wrapped in several layers of paper
and stored in a cool place. The foods rise in temperature will
shorten its storage life and therefore the food should be used
within a relatively short period of time.
o
DO NOT PLACE FOOD BACK IN THE FREEZER
COMPARTMENT THAT HAS STARTED TO THAW.
o
After ensuring that your hands are dry, disconnect your fridge
freezer from your mains supply
o
Remove the drawers from the freezer section and leave the door
to the freezer compartment open. You can place a bowl of warm
water inside of the freezer compartment to speed up the defrost
process.
o
You can use a sponge to mop up the defrost water that will run
into the bottom of the freezer section.
o
IMPORTANT: You should place some old towels on the flooring
that is immediately in front of the appliance; in case any defrost
water comes out of the freezer section and onto the floor.
o
Once all the ice that has built up has melted, then the inside of
the freezer compartment should be dried thoroughly. Failure to
do this will result in immediate ice build when the appliance is
switched back on.
